Preparation
  1. Prepare Tuna Mixture: In a mixing bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sriracha, sesame oil, soy sauce or ponzu, and fresh lime juice until creamy and well combined.
  2. Mix Tuna: Gently fold in the diced sushi-grade tuna, red onion, green onion, and toasted sesame seeds. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 30 minutes.
  3. Fry Wonton Shells: Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Shape each wonton wrapper into a taco shape and fry for about 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
  4. Assemble Tacos: Fill each crispy wonton shell with the chilled tuna mixture. Top with slices of avocado and add optional garnishes.
  5. Serve Fresh: Arrange the assembled tacos on a platter and serve immediately.
